Chapter 43: Attacking Liuzhuang

Zhou Cang sneered and said, "So, you Liuzhuang don't want to hand it over!" ”

Liu Qun was startled when he saw Zhou Cang's bloodthirsty appearance, but when he saw his own guards, Liu Qun's courage suddenly became sufficient, and he said loudly: "This world is still the world of the Han Dynasty, and you traitors will be killed by the officials and soldiers of the Han Dynasty sooner or later!" If you know each other, you will immediately retreat to the old man, the eldest son of the old man will serve as a county lieutenant in Wu County, as long as you retreat, the old man promises not to go to your trouble, otherwise the old man will ask my eldest son to kill you without leaving a piece of armor. ”

Hearing Liu Qun's almost cheering words, Zhou Cang couldn't help laughing, and the wolf army brothers brought by Zhou Cang couldn't help it for a long time, they saw Zhou Cang laughing, and they laughed out loud, and some people's stomachs hurt with laughter. Liu Qun saw Zhou Cang and the others laughing below, his beard rose angrily, and he said angrily: "What are you waiting for the traitor to be small." ”

Zhou Cang felt that he had laughed enough, and said with a crooked face: "Brothers, these people don't want to pay tolls, you say, what should I do?" ”

The warriors of the wolf army shouted: "Kill, kill, kill, kill into Liuzhuang." ”

Zhou Cang shouted and said, "Very good, we should kill him and kill him without leaving a chicken." Zhou Cang's eyes were full of confidence when he saw the two hundred people he brought, these were the two hundred people he had personally selected, and they were also considered elite among the wolf army! This time, Zhou Cang had long thought that those money-hungry families would definitely not pay money so easily, so Zhou Cang selected the two hundred most elite people in the entire Qingfeng Mountain, and he wanted to enter it by himself, and he wanted Li Ziqiang to see his Zhou Cang's ability.

Zhou Cang roared angrily and said loudly: "Archers prepare, five arrows in a volley." "This time, Zhou Cang brought a full eighty archers. What he wants is the long-range strike ability of archers, and the archers of the wolf army are not like the archers of the Han official army, each of them has a certain melee ability! This is also because Li Ziqiang has relatively few people, so Li Ziqiang has to build an elite division, so even archers must also conduct melee training, and every archer has a sword as their weapon! (Note: At that time, knives were not yet popular, and the weapons of the infantry were basically long swords and spears) In addition, Zhou Cang also brought eighty sword and shield soldiers, which was almost all the sword and shield soldiers of the wolf army, because the entire wolf army only had one hundred sword and shield soldiers. The rest are forty pikemen, although these pikemen do not play much in siege warfare, but as long as they enter Liuzhuang, then their ability is very great.

As Zhou Cang's voice fell, the warriors of the wolf army immediately set up an attacking formation, and at this time, the archers lined up in two columns, one in front and one in the back. Liu Qun saw that the bandits of Qingfeng Mountain had discharged this formation, and a feeling of unease suddenly appeared in his heart. I didn't know what to do for a while.

Fortunately, Liu Qun's second son, Liu Mu, did not do the same as Liu Qun, and he immediately shouted: "Father, quickly go down the city wall, quickly go down the city wall, they are going to attack." Liu Mu saw that Liu Qun was actually stunned there, and he didn't care about any respect or disrespect, so he walked down the city wall with Liu Qun.

At this time, an archer who looked like a squadron leader walked to the front and said loudly: "Ready, release." At once, eighty bows and arrows were fired, and at this time, Liu Mu and the willow herd had just come down the city wall, and the people on the city wall immediately fell down more than twenty people, and more than a dozen people were wounded. Moreover, there was also a bow and arrow that landed right in front of Willow Wood, only one step away from him, which startled Willow. At this time, Liu Qun finally came to his senses, and he said loudly: "Liu Mu, hurry up, hurry up and distribute the family's weapons, as well as the thirty bows and arrows." It turned out that only 300 guards in Liuzhuang had standing weapons, and the rest of them did not have weapons, so Liu Qun would say that they would send weapons down. As for the thirty bows and arrows, they were made by Liu Quntuo, because the Han Dynasty was relatively strict with strategic weapons such as bows and arrows, and ordinary people couldn't get these weapons!

And Zhou Cang saw that the archers of the wolf army were so powerful, laughed, and said to the left and right: "This is the real archer, this is the real elite." ”

The guards of Liuzhuang on the city wall were suppressed by the archers of the wolf army and could not raise their heads. The five rounds of bows and arrows were finally over, but for the guards of Liuzhuang, this short time of less than a cup of tea seemed like a year. During this time, they suffered hundreds of casualties, and probably nearly half of them fell in the first volley. And all the guards in Liuzhuang added up to only three hundred, and at this moment, the guards suffered one-third of the casualties.

All the guards were frightened, they saw that the archers of the wolf army did not attack, and their first impression was not how to fight back, but to escape. It's no wonder that these people are particularly strong, but they still see very little blood, to put it simply, they are a group of sheep in wolf's clothing.

Just as they were about to withdraw, Liu Mu came, and behind him there were hundreds of armed peasants, Liu Mu was also dressed in military uniform, and he said loudly: "Quickly give me the city wall, and those who do not want to go up will be killed." "No wonder Willow would say that, because now there is a shout of killing from outside the manor, and this is the sound of the bandits attacking the city!

Liuzhuang's city wall is just an enlarged version of the fence after all, it is only two meters high, only a little higher than a person, after all, it is impossible for the Han court to let private owners own the city. Therefore, it is relatively simple to capture this Liuzhuang, I saw that each of these soldiers brought a stone, and then piled it under the city wall, as long as a dozen relatively large stones can make a road leading to the city wall!

This method was still thought up by Zhang Guolin, when he saw such a low city wall, Zhang Guolin had this idea, and Zhou Cang wanted to attack the city, so Zhou Cang agreed with Zhang Guolin's method very much, he didn't say a word, and directly let other people act according to Zhang Guolin's method.

When Willow Wood went up to the city wall, he saw a scene that surprised him, all the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen became sappers, and they all carried a stone and made a rapid advance towards the city wall. Liu Mu reacted immediately, and he shouted loudly: "Hurry up, the archers prepare, the archers prepare, shoot me these thieves." ”

The archers brought by Liu Mu took their bows and arrows in a panic, and prepared to shoot arrows, and immediately shot down a sparse thirty arrows from the city wall. But the lethality of these arrows was also a little too poor, and only one or two unlucky eggs were shot, and they were all lightly wounded.

Zhou Cang laughed and said, "Brothers, let them see what a real archer is." ”

The archers of the wolf army roared wildly to express their feelings, and immediately the archers of the wolf army launched a volley. This time, in order not to hurt their brothers, the archers of the wolf army chose to throw one after another, and at this time, the walls of Liuzhuang were full of people, so the results of the archers were still relatively large, and there were fifty or sixty strong men who lost their combat effectiveness.

Immediately there was a commotion on the walls, and they were afraid of being shot with bows and arrows. At this time, Liu Mu also knew that it was a critical time, if these strong men left, what would he use to defend the city, so Liu Mu said: "Listen, everyone, if you defeat this gang of bandits, everyone's tax will be exempted this year." ”

Sure enough, it was still the most money, and when the strong men heard that the one-year tax was exempted, they all mustered up their courage, and even a few people said: "Second young master, don't worry, Zhuang is here." ”

"Yes, Zhuang is in the people, Zhuang is in the people."
